Triumvirat - (Oh, I'm) Late Again lyrics

It seems it's been a long long time Since I have had to be home at nine I always made it - but too late And that has been my share of fate And still I know I will be there I might be late which isn't fair It does annoy those friends of mine When I always say I'll be on time (CHORUS) I never can make it right on time There's always something in my way You have to believe that I really try But it happens to me every day And I know you don't give a damn Here we go, Oh I'm late again On Friday afternoon at four My bank locks up the entrance door I need some cash to pay the rent Of course I'm late - no happy end The banker is a friend of mine He knows I'm never there in time So I start knocking on his door 'cos after all it's only a quarter past four (CHORUS) It happened once that I wasn't late Which is the other side of fate I met this girl and right away I told her what I had to say And ever since we went along Sometimes we're late, sometimes right on And while I'm writing down this song She stands there waiting for me (CHORUS)
